Nikola Mirotic should be a very solid short-term play while Gibson is out, and with Jimmy Butler (elbow) expected to miss three-to-four weeks, Tony Snell and Mike Dunleavy should also see increased minutes for Chicago.","date":"Mon Mar 2"},"fullName":"Taj Gibson","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Gibson left no doubt that he can be a fantasy stud with a big enough workload, averaging 42.3 MPG, 19.3 PPG, 2.8 APG, 9.8 RPG and 1.8 BPG in seven starts last season. He'll never see that many minutes per game over a season, and any hope that Boozer's amnesty would clear the way for a breakout campaign for Gibson went out the window when the Bulls inked Pau Gasol. Odds are Gasol will start but both should play similar minutes (upper-20s). Unless Gibson leapfrogs Gasol and plays 35 MPG as a starter, he will continue to under-produce in his typically limited role. However, that still makes him a good PF to round out your frontcourt --TC","seasonId":2015,"date":"Fri Oct 3"},"playerRater30DAY":-0.3,"playerRater15DAY":-1.5,"positionRank":28}
